Desiknio eBike

eBike System

By the end of 2016 we reached an agreement with Ebikemotion® to co-engineer a completely new eBike system for a new generation of light eBikes, based on our first prototypes. In this way, the new Desiknio models are now equipped with battery, motor, motor controller, control unit… jointly developed with Ebikemotion®, and manufactured by this company which conforms to the quality standards of the European automotive industry.

Ebikemotion® is part of a mayor electronic company in the automotive industry (whose customers include Mahle, Mercedes Benz, Renault…) and several factories (for assembling, electronic production and R&D centers) in Spain.

Frame

Keeping the style of the first prototypes, the Desiknio Frame is the result of hundreds of hours in engineering and design. It is a perfect combination of the most up-to-date manufacturing technology, like the CNC (Computer Numerical Control) milled parts or the double butted hydro formed tubes, with the finest handcrafted work in the TIG welding or the braze-on parts.

– Custom Shaped Tubes

– CNC Parts

– 6061 Aluminium

– T6 Heat Treated

– Double Smooth Welding

– Polished by Hand

CNC Sliding Dropouts

CNC milled from a single block of aluminium, the dropouts are engineered and manufactured to be robust and extra-precise.

Specially designed for the Gates Carbondrive™, the set screws inserted into the sliding dropouts provide the right tension to the belt with mathematical precision. The right dropout has a hidden opening that allows the rear triangle of the frame to be separated for the belt drive.

Tapered Headtube

Tapered headtube for an increased stiffness, cornering precision and stability.

Integrated headset with angular contact bearings, that drop right into the headtube with no cups: lighter and hidden.

Integrated Charging Connector

Due to the misalignment of the downtube (to let the battery be installed/removed), our frame has a reinforcement over the bottom bracket.

The bridge is fully CNC milled from a single block of aluminium, and incorporates the charging connector.

This way, the connector is integrated into the frame, and is easily accessible for charging the inner battery or connecting the optional Water BottleBattery.

Water Bottle, Fenders and Rear Rack Mounts

In order to keep the clean and minimalist design of the bike, but improve versatility for daily use, we have added some discreet threaded inserts.

Unlike the rivet nuts that you can find in most of the bike frames, which use to unfasten over time exposed to continuous vibrations and loads, we use threaded inserts welded, much more stable and with improved aesthetic.
